About this file
This document is a Contract Amendment Summary issued by the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) Procurement division, modifying an existing contract with High Street Consulting Group LLC for a Grant Writing On-Call services contract. The amendment is designated as Amendment Number Five (5) and involves updating the contract's pricing structure and terms.
The amendment introduces a new pricing mechanism that allows for price increases after 12 months of contract performance, with specific rate adjustments for 12 different labor categories. Most line items receive a 3% increase, ranging from $3.30 to $8.55 per rate, with the exception of the Technical Expert category, which sees a slight decrease of $9.95. The price increase is justified by High Street Consulting Group's documentation of labor cost increases, supported by national data from Payscale and the US Bureau of Labor Statistics. The procurement authority reviewed the request and approved the 3% price increase as fair and reasonable, determining it to be in the best interest of the State of Arizona. The contract number is CTR057886, and the amendment was processed and approved in February 2025.

Contract Amendment Summary
CONTRACTOR: High Street Consulting Group LLC AMENDMENT NO: Five (5) DESCRIPTION: Grant Writing On-Call
Pursuant to the Uniform Terms and Conditions, Section 5, Contract Changes, the above referenced contract is amended. Summary of changes is as follows:
1. Refer to Special Terms and Conditions, Paragraph 9 - Price Increase: Replace “Not Applicable” with the following language:
“The Department will review fully documented requests for price increases for any contract which will or has been in effect for twelve (12) months. The request shall be submitted no less than 60 days prior to the contract renewal date. The Contractor shall provide fully documented information which supports the price increase request. Fully documented means that the request shall present detailed information and calculations that make it clear how the claimed increase has an impact on the contract unit prices. All assumptions regarding cost factors that have an impact on the requested increase shall also be clearly identified and justified. The requested price increase must be based upon a cost increase that was clearly unpredictable at the time of the offer and can be shown to directly affect the price of the item concerned. Any price increase adjustment request prior to the time of contract extension will be a factor in the extension review process. The Department will determine whether the requested price increase or an alternate option, is in the best interest of the State.”

PROCUREMENT DETERMINATION
PRICE INCREASE
Cc: File
3) Provide justification:
High Street Consulting Group LLC submitted a price increase request due to increased cost of labor. High Street Consulting Group LLC provided National Data via Payscale for 2024-2025, High Street Consulting Data annual increase in salary by position, and the US Bureau of Labor Statistics requesting a 3% increase. This increase is lower than the salary and compensation increases for similarly skilled workers over the past several months as demonstrated by the following national data sources. US Bureau of Labor statistics (https://www.bls.gov/eci/home.htm) BLS News Release;
Employment Cost Index June 2024 Compensation costs for civilian workers increased 4.1% for the 12-month period ending in June 2024. Wages and salaries increased 4.2% for the 12-month period ending in June 2024. Wages for the management, professional, and related occupational group increased 4.1% for the 12-month period ending in June 2024.
After thorough review of the submitted documentation, a price increase of 3% for the above listed labor categories is fair and reasonable, and in the best interest of the State of Arizona.
